Verdict
Corsair iCUE Link RX120
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A clean, quiet workhorse fan that only really makes sense once you're bought into iCUE Link's single-cable wiring.
Deepcool FC120
8 / 10 Expert Rating
A well-rounded daisy-chain ARGB fan that undercuts Lian Li on price for similar cable-management convenience.
